The Devils Auction

Everyone remembers the heavy busI-
ness done here a season or two ago by
the spectacular, pantomimic, demonia-
ca, scenic, mechanical, musical conglom-
Grafton known as the Devils Auction.
The same show with the contortionlst
Martineth. and ell the other girls,
demons, peasants, fairies and what not,
comes to the Theatre next Friday and
Saturday evenings with a Saturday
matinee. The town is already flooded
with printing that would put old John
Robinson or Cole himself to the blush,
and we can not do better than to make
an excerpt from one of the frank and
open paragraphs with which the pro.
p:ietor OF the Devils Auction fayors his
readers:
-, Inc reason l put; the Devils Auction on
the road was well, TO make money, and
enter field which q certain party seemed
TO have the monopoly OF thought to nv
self that the time for immense spectaculars
was ripe, and in launching this attraction,
it threw into the camp OF the would he
monopolistS shell that seemed to burst with
such force as q most to extinct their founda-
tons The result is that it is not only a vic
tory tor me, but great one for the public
l believe that competition is the success of
trade. Notwithstanding my milliOnaire
friend Jay Gould to the contrary
How strange it is to think that all the at
fractions that have visited your city, not
one has been heralded as an ordinary at
traction, always quoting q well known
publication as to its merit, and the editor of
said publication has never seen much less
written 1t up. That is why do not make
use OF press opinions" as the public have
been m1sled too often. If the Devils Auc-
ton has appeared in your city before. and
the chances are that thas, go to the manager
Of your opera house, ask him when the
Devils Auction was there last then consult
the files OF your local papers and see If am
not suostantlated and corroborated in my
representations.

GENERAL WALKER.
Something About His Capture, as Told by a STAFF
Officer.

EDITOR NATIONAL TRIBUNE: Sewell Pet
tingill Co. +, llth Me-, Wayne, Me-, asks TO
hear from a member of the Tooth n. Y.
with reference, take it, 20 the capture OF the
rebel General Walker. First, as to date.
will copy from history of the Tooth n. Y,
written by myself.
May 81. 1864. A fierce attack was made on our
line by the rebel General Walker, a Texan 10y
birth. In handling his men Ia the wood he became
separated from his command aud rode up to our
line, and thinking II was his own ordered us on,
when. at once seeing his error. he wheeled. threw
himself on the neck Of his horse, striking him
deeply with spurs and attempted TO flee, but n
welldirected volley brought horse and rider the
ground. His horse was killed and the General
was badly wounded. He affirmed that If he had
not been taken, our line soon would hhve been
doubled up and broken, and our position hanlIed.
He lost leg was sent 10 Fortress Monroe and re-
covered. lie was fioe-looling, intelligent officer.
about 45 years OF age.
This is what we wrote II years ago. When
captured. he was taken through the camp OF
the Tooth n. Y. We saw him, and well
remember his deep, musical voice, as he ex-
claimed, when his leg was touched, Don't; the
pain is agonizing"
Now this all reads smoothly. rs ] wrote il Il
years ago; but what are the facts, or what
knowledge is gained of his capture. He was
captured May 81 on the front of the Tooth
n. Y, encamped on the extreme right of
the line, with the James River for our flank,
not on duty that day, others of the regiment
were, and hence cannot settle the fact as 10
who captured him and To what regiment the
captors belonged. Ii would seem that, with
date and locality settled, there should be some
one or more alive who were present when he
was shot, which would definitely settle the
matter. Perhaps the fact may be brought 10
light satisfactorily. There should be nc
wonder, and il is amazing, too, that variety
Of opinions should be entertained as 10 the sim
plest mooted question or fact, as private sol.
der or a subordinate officer knew so little OF
what transpired about him. Our knowledge
was mostly hearsay, and usually distorted and
enlarged when descriptive of a battle or charge
OF the most trivial character.

ALLATOONA.

Short Statement from One who was I'm the Fight.
EDITOR NATIONAL TRIBUNE: / have read
COmrade h. A. Jackson's criticisms on Franken-
berry's article, entitled " old the Fort" lie
says that Gen. Sherman on Oct. 4, 1864, at IL
O'Clock a. m, came upon Kenesaw Mountain,
and asked If they could get signal through to
Allatoona Pass, and thence by telegraph TO Gen.
Corse at Rome, and that the same evening at
6 o'clock Sherman received the following:
AILATooYA, GA. Oct. e. 1861
Official To Gen. w. T. sherman. Kenesaw
Mountain: am here with one brigade and will en-
deavor 10 hold the works. CoRsE.
He says the next morning at o'clock they
could hear the cannonading and knew that the
fight was on. At IL O'Clock the cannonading
stopped and the battle ceased
IL Comrade Jackson is no nearer correct In his
other statements than be is in those dispatches,
as TO time at least, we can place but little re-
lance upon them. j remember very distinctly
of attending that little entertainment. Gen.
Corse, with a remnant Of our brigade, composed
OF the Goth and 57th I'D. and 37th lowa-about
1000 men-arriyed at Allatoona at 3 o'clock a.
m. Oct. s.; hence Gen. Corse could not have sent
the dispatch or signal TO Gen. Sherman at {
o'clock the evening before. Instead of the bat
tie ccasing at III o'clock as he says, il must have
been fully 2 o'clock before the rebels were
finally repused.
We have always felt that the day was saved
at Allatoona, from the fact that the 9TH ILL., was
armed with the Henry rifle. That regiment
aud ours held the Ridge road from the south
west, where, perhaps, themost desperate assaults
were made by the rebels. They formed and
reformed their lines not less than three or four
times. and every time were literally torn 10
pieces by the 9TH I'll. and seth Iowa. / only
speak OF these regiments for the reason that
they were all knew anything about We had
all we could attend 10 on that part of the field.
think IL will be admitted by all that our part
OF the line received she most desperate assaults.

On the Peninsula.

Thomas Wightman, Co. /, 1st Mich. Sharp
shooters, renews the claim that his regiment
was first 10 enter Petersburg. j. M. Walton
placed the flag of the regiment on the Court
house, and he is sure that at the time no other
Union troops had entered the city.
g. b. Pendexter, Co. f, 9th Me-, Standish,
Me-, was greatly interested in Comrade MOrey's
account of the battle of Chapins Farm, but
thinks he is too much inclined to ignore the
presence of other regiments beside his own.
The writer says the 18th N. H., 9th and eth
Conn.,, 9th Me-, and other regiments of the Tenth
Corps. under Gen. Butler were active partici-
pants He thinks Gen. Butler has never re-
ceived sufficient credit for his services ut Ber-
muda Hundred, Petersburg, Chapin's Farm, and
New Orleans.
c. c. Cole, Co. ], 7th Mich, says that at BalPs
Bluff the 7th Mich. and 18th Mass. crossed the
river at Edwards Ferry early in the morning
and moved up toward where Col Baker was
engaged with the enemy. These two regiments
wished TO move in the rear of the enemy and
cut them oil, but Gen. Stone refused to allow
them to do so.
o. b. Merrill, 36th H., Hinckly, ILL.,, says that
although there were many greater battles than
Pea Ridge, there was none in which victory
was more complete. He says that Peter PeIi-
can, Co. b. Both ILL.,, killed Gen. McCulloch and
brought his gold watch and papers to Col
Grensel, who afterward sent them to McCul-
loch's mother, in Tennessee.
